Multiphase Flowmetering

The Multiphase Flowmetering Training Course provides an in-depth review of the principles, techniques, and technologies used to measure the flow rates of gas, oil, and water in multiphase systems. Traditional flowrate determination methods, such as the separation method, involve separating the oil, water, and gas phases and measuring each stream individually. While effective, this approach is becoming increasingly less efficient in today’s complex production environments.

Over recent decades, the oil and gas industry has shifted towards more sophisticated technologies, such as Multiphase Flow Meters (MFM), for real-time monitoring and accurate flow measurement in multiphase systems. Since the early 1990s, the use of MFM systems has expanded rapidly, with over 3,500 applications worldwide, including field allocation, production optimization, and well testing.

This course provides a critical and independent review of both established and emerging technologies in the field of multiphase flow measurement. Participants will explore the advantages and limitations of various technologies used in commercial meters, offering insights into their reliability, accuracy, and real-world applications. It’s an essential training for those seeking to stay ahead of industry trends and best practices in multiphase metering systems.
